    Me too. I love chips. Particularly with tomato ketchup and mayonnaise. And with fish & mushy peas. Or eggs & beans. Or pie. Or steak.
    With Syrian food, not so much.

    Other half and I went to Bistro Pierre (in the Crescent Hotel, Ilkley) a few nights back. Decent stuff - nothing spectacular but good value, mid-priced grub. Both had seafood starters, she had sea bass main and I had duck plus a creme brulee pudding. Came to £70 ish including wine. I'd happily go back.

    I took my mum yesterday lunchtime. Not a seat to be had, inside or outside. We then went to The Boathouse which had a spectacularly stodgy and boring menu, in a pub 20% full the bar girl took my order and said "The food will be 40 mins OK?" Er, no are you taking the piss.....

    Up to the Salt/Hop place, we both had 2 crayfish & shrimp sandwiches (£6 each), mum had pint of some IPA me a pint of Aspals cider, cost was about £22, so Leeds price pints. Having said that, they appeared a good selection of their own brews which were no doubt cheaper.

    We sat outside so no lighting review. The sandwiches were flipping ace, packed out with seafood, good side chips and a salad, we'll go again next week.

    I reckon choosing drinks more carefully would get the cost down to under £20, which for 2 pints and ace food that left us both full, is great value.

    I got engaged in Kiplings. I think it was called the Candlestick back then. Completely irrelevant but just thought I'd mention it

    Haha i’ve read some guff before but that takes the biscuit, there must be two different Bradfords in the country, the one i live at is dying a death. Most of the things they mention aren’t even Bradford they just have a BD postcode. To be fair get out of the city centre and outside the ring road and its a nice enough place, inside that has nothing go for it.

    Now then. I went partly because it's a new chef: former Mastercheffer (aren't they all now?) and head chef at excellent Norse (now closed) and Horto at Rudding Park.

    He's updated the menu and the food was topnotch - claasic stuff with a modern slant.

    However it's a large space and at one point I was the only one in, which felt a bit weird.

    Starters were 10-15 quid, mains 20+. Had a creme brulee cos I was on my tod and it'd be hard to get 600 words out of 2 dishes...

    This isn't a restaurant menu, but what I cooked for 10 of us for our annual New Year's Eve dinner. Quite pleased with this year's effort. 20200101_005200.jpg

    Ha! Bloody autocorrect!
    Drives me mad this does. Always wants to change Baildon to Basildon. Causes no end of confusion, especially as I was born in Orsett, just a few miles from Basildon.

    Been going to Kiplings for years now and always enjoyed their curries.

    Staff and service has always been very good.
